The Wigner $3j$ symbols of the quantum angular momentum theory are related to the vector coupling or Clebsch-Gordan coefficients and to the Hahn and dual Hahn polynomials of the discrete orthogonal hyperspherical family, of use in…
A particular case of degenerate Clebsch-Gordan coefficient can be expressed with three binomial coefficients. Such a formula, which may be obtained using the standard ladder operator procedure, can also be derived from the Racah-Shimpuku…
We propose an algebraic expression for $U_q(\mathfrak{sl}_3)$ quantum $3j$ symbols (quantum Clebsch-Gordan coefficients) appearing in the decomposition of tensor product of symmetric representations. Our compact form will be useful to write…
We define a set of orthogonal functions on the complex projective space CP^{N-1}, and compute their Clebsch-Gordan coefficients as well as a large class of 6-j symbols. We also provide all the needed formulae for the generation of…
The contribution of Jacques Raynal to angular-momentum theory is highly valuable. In the present article, I intend to recall the main aspects of his work related to Wigner $3j$ symbols. It is well known that the latter can be expressed with…
We study 6j-symbols, or Racah coefficients for tensor products of infinite-dimensional unitary principal series representations of the group SL(2,C). These symbols were constructed earlier by Ismagilov and we rederive his result (up to some…
The Clebsch-Gordan coefficients of the group SU(2) are shown to satisfy new inequalities. They are obtained using the properties of Shannon and Tsallis entropies. The inequalities associated with the Wigner 3-j symbols are obtained using…
The Clebsch-Gordan and Racah-Wigner coefficients for the positive (or negative) discrete series of irreducible representations for the noncompact form $U_q(SU(1,1))$ of the algebra $U_q(sl(2))$ are computed.
We describe libwignernj, a freely available, BSD-licensed library that evaluates Wigner 3j, 6j, and 9j symbols, Clebsch--Gordan, Racah $W$, and Fano $X$ coefficients, and Gaunt coefficients over both complex and real spherical harmonics in…
We show that the complex hypergeometric function describing $6j$-symbols for $SL(2,\mathbb{C})$ group is a special degeneration of the $V$-function -- an elliptic analogue of the Euler-Gauss $_2F_1$ hypergeometric function. For this…
We explore the geometry and asymptotics of extended Racah coeffecients. The extension is shown to have a simple relationship to the Racah coefficients for the positive discrete unitary representation series of SU(1,1) which is explicitly…
The irreducible $*$-representations of the Lie algebra $su(1,1)$ consist of discrete series representations, principal unitary series and complementary series. We calculate Racah coefficients for tensor product representations that consist…
The decomposition of tensor products of representations into irreducibles is studied for a continuous family of integrable operator representations of $U_q(sl(2,R)$. It is described by an explicit integral transformation involving a…
This paper describes Clebsch-Gordan coefficients (CGCs) for unitary irreducible representations (UIRs) of the extended quantum mechanical Poincar\'e group $\pt$. `Extended' refers to the extension of the 10 parameter Lie group that is the…
The expressions of the coupling coefficients (3j-symbols) for the most degenerate (symmetric) representations of the orthogonal groups SO(n) in a canonical basis (with SO(n) restricted to SO(n-1)) and different semicanonical or tree bases…
The $9j$ symbols of $\mathfrak{su}(1,1)$ are studied within the framework of the generic superintegrable system on the 3-sphere. The canonical bases corresponding to the binary coupling schemes of four $\mathfrak{su}(1,1)$ representations…
In this paper we show that a closed form formula for the generalized Clebsch-Gordan integral and the Fourier-Legendre expansion theory allow to evaluate hypergeometric series involving powers of the normalized central binomial coefficient…
Seven different triple sum formulas for $9j$ coefficients of the quantum algebra $u_q(2)$ are derived, using for these purposes the usual expansion of $q$-$9j$ coefficients in terms of $q$-$6j$ coefficients and recent summation formula of…
We present the asymptotic formula for the Wigner 9j-symbol, valid when all quantum numbers are large, in the classically allowed region. As in the Ponzano-Regge formula for the 6j-symbol, the action is expressed in terms of lengths of edges…
$E_6$ is an attractive group for unification model building. However, the complexity of a rank 6 group makes it non-trivial to write down the structure of higher dimensional operators in an $E_6$ theory in terms of the states labeled by…
